In the middle of the Mojave desert, just outside Las Vegas, rests an abandoned phone booth, riddled with bullet holes, graffiti, its windows broken, but otherwise functioning. For years, travellers would make the trek down a lonely dirt road and camp next to the booth, in the hopes that it might suddenly ring, and they could connect with a stranger - often from another country - on the other end of the line.This is the story of four disparate characters whose lives intersect with this mystical booth, and the disembodied, yet comforting voice of Greta, on the other end:
There is Beth, a troubled woman facing dillemmas with her love-life and a recurring, baffling crime; Mary, a young South African, who is contemplating selling her body for the funds to escape her dreadful existence; Alex, a woman who is losing her lover, Glory, to the belief she is plagued by aliens, and Richard, pitched into desperation by a separation with his wife, who happens upon the booth after a failed suicide attempt.Exploring themes of love, death, the mystery of the universe, and the phenomenon of inter-connectivity, Mojave Phone Booth takes us into the psyche of these characters, examines the double-lives we lead, and the necessary sacrifices we must make to survive in these challenging times.
